Default Apple's patent application for iPhone's wobble homescreen and throwable icons

This is another further evidence to the authenticity of GearLive’s leaked iPhone 1.1.3 firmware photos and videos that were leaked over the weekend. Hrmph.com dug up a patent application that was published in August of last year that clearly shows Apple describing how one might allow rearrangement of icons on a mobile device, and specifically describes varying the positions (wobbling) of the icons to indicate that the icons may be moved by the user.It’s certainly possible the images/video could simply be based on this patent application, it was not widely publicized at the time, and the description of wobbling icons is only obvious in retrospect. The leaked version of the firmware does not have this capability according to GearLive. The iPhone is currently at firmware version 1.1.2, and there’s been no indication when 1.1.3 might be released.
